was a crash and an electric bolt
struck the woodpile, scattering it

sensation and sudden contraction of
the muscles, Mr.. Briggs experienced
no unpleasant effects. The fluid

A SEA CALAMITY.
WRECK OF THE BROTHER JONATHAN
FOUND AFTER A TEN YEARS
SEARCH.

After a search Of ten years Cap
tain Gee has discovered the wreck
of the steamer Brother Jonathan,
lost twenty-five years ago. He
located the wreck last Monday two
miles south of northeast Seal Rock,
eighteen miles northwest from Cres-
cent City. She struck on rock not
marked on the chart.
The loss of this steamer carried
grief and mourning into many homes,
and finding of the vessel revives a
period that many would gladly free
the memory from.
Nearly two hundred passengers
we're on board when the Brother
Jonathan sailed for Victoria. She
was owned by the California Steam
Navigation Company and was COM
manded by Captain De Wolf, a
careful thorough seaman. From
the start the steamer had rough
weather and soon encountered such
a fearful sea that the Captain con-
sidered it prudent to put into Cres-
cent City until the storm had abateds
She was put about, and when ten
miles off shore on the 30th of July,
1865, she struck a rock.
The sea was rolling mountains
high at the time, and the passengers
seeiug that there remained no hope
resigned themselves to their fate.
However, an effort was made to
save the passengers, but most of the
boats were swamped as soon as
launched. One boat of sixteen per-
sons managed to reach the shore,
and several who chung to bits of the
wreck were afterward picked up.
The steamer sank one hour after
the collision, taking down with her
40 passengers out of 160.
Among the passengers who went
down with the wreck was young
lady, II years of age, Miss Netty
Shirpser. daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Isadore Shirpser, now living at No.
419 Geary street in this city. She
had just passed successful exam
nation previous to school vacation,
and her father who was in Oregon
was so pleased over her accomplish
ments that wrote for her to meet him
at Victoria. Ever since the vessel
went down Mr.. ShirpseF has been
employing much of his attention
toward the discovery of the wreck
age. Many others have occupied
themselves as he has. Among those
who were lost were Major-General
George Wright of the United States
Army and his wife, General A. c.
Henry of Washington Territory,
Major +. w. Eddy of the United
States Army, James Nisbet, a
pioneer editor of this city, and other
prominent people.
AS much as three-quarters of
million dollars have been spent
during the past decade in search for
the wreck. rs. F. paper.

A REMEDY FOR FRUIT TREE BoRERS.

w. G. Hurley of Colfax, whose
fruit trees were badly injured by
borers, thus tells of remedy en-
ployed by him with success; Our
ing the latter part of April l washed
all the trees with whale-oil soap and
wrapped nearly all with paper, leav-
ing 100 or so in nursery I'M
wrapped, and in some few instances
the paper was torn on those in the
orchard. On examination, during
latter part of July and 1st of the
present month | found every one
where the paper was intact free
from borers, in fact, not finding a
single one, while in those uncovered,
and where the paper had been re-
moved, found from one to twenty,
all sizes, This to me is conclusive
proof that | am on the right track.
Moreover, the peaches and cherries
wrapped did not gum particle,
while the unwrapped ones were
badly affected. The operation is
very simple and quickly done. Take
stiff paper (glazed hardware is the
best) and cut it in strips four inches
wide, then commence at the top of
the trunk and wrap spirally TO tie
root, throwing up earth around tie
paper to keep it in place, or if
thought necessary, it can be loosely
tied. A boy can wrap 500 trees in
a day of ten hours. The trunks of
ysung trees certainly need some pro-
lection from the intense heat of the
sun, which often hereabouts is ITO .

-CIC A R:

THE ABOVE REQUEST Is HEARD
i da ly 1T cigar stores, saloons and
other p aces where cigars are sold, for
it is an undisputed fact that most smokers
prefer a mild cigar and that those who
have for long time smoked strong
cigars, principally imported Manilas,
will, after having thoroughly injured
the stomach and impaired the nervous
system, surely want a mild cigar, If they
could find the right kind.
How many thousands of smokers who
suffer from loss of appetite, headache,
nervous irritability, asthma, etc., and
who have tried all possible remedies
without success, might be cured if they
knew that their suflerings were caused
by the Incorporate use of strong cigars,
and that they should only smoke mild
and properly prepared ones.
1t is fact that all mild cigars agree
well with smokers, for in most cases
there is lack of care in the selection of
the tobacco, and often the necessary ex-
perience for it is wanting, yet there is
one brand which suits the most fastidious
smoker, and that is

RELICS OF MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS.

The lock of golden hair of Marie
Stuart, sent to the exhibition by the
Queen, looks as fresh and glossy as
if it had been cut off only yerterday.
The jewels, trinkets and quaint
watches which she brought from
France contrast painfully with the
coarse shoes and rough gloves of
her later years. The blood-stained
lace which she wore on the night
of Rizzio's murder, lies close to the
veil which she wore the morning of
her execution at Fotheringay.-
